Our organisation is a cultural association funded 4 years ago by a group of adult people with the passion of Gospel. Thanks to their common passion they use to organize festivals and concerts to promote the Gospel songs around Italy.
Founded in 2007, after the death of the piano jazz player Angelo Canelli, the association put together people to share ideas, knowledge and best practices, to facilitate personal and professional development and to promote national and possibly international competitions.

“Angelo Canelli” Jazz Club is an independent non-profit association based in Vasto (south-east of Italy) aiming to strengthen cultural communication, cooperation and exchange at local national and international levels for raising cultural awareness and development of the society.
The Association has been established in 2007 by a group of people who give great importance to the roles of culture within the society.
Since its establishment, “Angelo Canelli” Jazz Club has been dealing with the issues of cultural management and policies and focusing on strengthening the role of the non-profit, independent cultural actors within the sector by networking among themselves, by means of creating links with other disciplines and sectors; building international links, integrating into European networks, producing and exchanging knowledge as well as advocating.
The tools to achieve those objectives are meetings, conferences, seminars, forums, artistic, cultural and educational projects.
European Cultural Association has lead in 2003 the foundation of a platform of cultural representatives of the European countries in Istanbul, namely Europist Multinational Cooperation Platform aiming to develop and implement joint projects with European perspective in collaboration with Turkish organizations and institutions.
The platform which has developed several projects with European Cultural Association still meets regularly.
